Every establishment Toronto Public Health inspects under DineSafe, screened by name to leave out kitchens inside schools, care homes and offices. A conditional pass means infractions had to be fixed by a follow-up visit, not that the premises is closed.

Park washrooms, washrooms in City buildings and automated street toilets, with hours and status as the City publishes them (park washrooms are seasonal). Malls, shops and TTC stations are not included.

Emergency services

Nearest station by straight line — not a response time, and not necessarily the station that would answer a call.
Apartment buildings nearby
RentSafeTO-registered rental buildings within 1 km, with the City's latest evaluation score
Within a kilometre there are three RentSafeTO-registered apartment buildings — 135 rental units. The nearest is 620 Evans Ave (792 m, 25 units, 3 storeys, built 1970), which scored 71 out of 100 at its July 2026 RentSafeTO evaluation. None scored below 70; the average is 87, below the 90 typical of Toronto intersections. The Landlord and Tenant Board issued 5 final orders naming these buildings in the latest half-year of its catalogue.
| Nearest buildings | Units | Storeys | Built | Score | LTB orders | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 620 Evans Ave · 620 Evans | 25 | 3 | 1970 | 71 · Jul 2026 | 0 | 792 m |
| 618 Evans Ave · Berkley Property Management Inc. | 25 | 3 | 1967 | 96 · Nov 2025 | 0 | 803 m |
| 625 Evans Ave · CAPREIT LP | 85 | 11 | 1967 | 93 · Jul 2026 | 5 | 882 m |
The City's RentSafeTO register — rental apartment buildings of three or more storeys and ten or more units — with the score from each building's latest City evaluation (out of 100; poor scores trigger a full audit). LTB orders are final Landlord and Tenant Board orders naming the address (Jan 2026 – Jun 2026); fire-code violations are open items in Toronto Fire Services' inspection data. Each building links to its full record on LandlordReport. Condominiums and houses are not registered.
Parking
Every mapped lot within 2 km, Green P with peak occupancy, City EV charging and bike parking
Nearest lots: 98 m away, ≈223 spaces; 105 m away, ≈760 spaces; 121 m away, ≈528 spaces; 137 m away, ≈944 spaces; 163 m away, ≈336 spaces; 182 m away, ≈610 spaces.
Lot count and area from the City's topographic mapping of parking-lot footprints (every visible surface lot, public or private); spaces are estimated at one per 30 m² of lot. Lots not run by Green P are private, commercial or institutional and may be for customers or residents only. Green P spaces and average daily peak occupancy from the Toronto Parking Authority's quarterly dataset (* = capacity from the 2019 car-park list; rates are not shown because that list is stale — check Green P). EV chargers are City-operated only; on-street and underground parking are not included.
Traffic volume
The City's latest turning-movement count — 8-hour, Dec 14, 2021
Traffic is heaviest from the north: 5,310 southbound vehicles entered from that leg, 37% of the total, against 2,196 from the west. Evening rush dominates here: 2,399 vehicles in the peak hour from 2:00 p.m., against 919 in the morning peak from 8:30 a.m. Trucks and buses were 5.2% of traffic, well above the typical 3.2% — a sign of a goods-movement or bus corridor. For scale, a typical counted intersection in Toronto sees 16,183 vehicles over 14 hours. The count is 5 years old — treat it as a snapshot of 2021, not today's volume. It was an 8-hour count, which is not directly comparable with the 14-hour counts the City has used since September 2023.
Approach figures are vehicles entering the intersection from that leg over the whole count. A count is one day's traffic, not an annual average; the City recounts on an ad-hoc schedule.
How fast traffic moves here
Midblock speed counts on the intersection's streets, the nearest school-zone speed sign, and traffic calming
The City's most recent midblock count on North Queen St between Nova Rd and The Queensway (0 m away, Sep 2012) recorded volume only — about 9,333 vehicles a day — with no speed data.
| Street segment | Counted | Vehicles / day | Average | 85th percentile | 95th |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| North Queen St · Nova Rd – The Queensway · 0 m | Sep 2012 · 3 days | 9,333 | — | — | — |
Midblock counts are automatic counters laid across the road for one to seven days; the 85th-percentile speed is the figure engineers use — 85% of drivers were at or below it. Counts are ad hoc, so some are years old. A midblock reading is not the speed through the intersection itself, and posted limits are not in the count data.
All police-reported collisions
Every collision reported to Toronto Police within 65 m, any severity, 2016–2025
The worst year was 2019, with 16 collisions; 2025 recorded 6. 20 collisions (18%) involved an injury; the citywide share is 15%. 18 drivers failed to remain at the scene — 16% of collisions, in line with the citywide 16%. 3 collisions involved a pedestrian or cyclist (3%), a low share for a Toronto intersection. Since January 2026, 4 more collisions have been reported; they sit outside the ranking window. The most recent report on file is from May 16, 2026.

Killed or seriously injured
Collisions in which someone died or was seriously injured, within 65 m, 2016–2025 — the basis of the danger rankings
One collision in 2016–2025 left someone seriously injured; it was not fatal. It involved vehicle occupants only — no pedestrian or cyclist. It happened in daylight or lit conditions. The most recent was on May 11, 2022.
By year
| 2016–2025 | Collisions | |
|---|---|---|
| All KSI collisions | 1 | #1218 of 1,505 |
| Fatal | 0 | |
| Involving a pedestrian | 0 | |
| Involving a cyclist | 0 | |
| Involving a motorcyclist | 0 | |
| In darkness | 0 | |
| All KSI since 2006 | 1 | latest May 11, 2022 |
KSI = killed or seriously injured. A collision is counted if its recorded location is within 65 m of this intersection's centreline node, whether the police coded it as intersection-related or mid-block. Records can lag a year or more, so the current year is excluded from rankings.
Thefts reported at this corner
Thefts from vehicles and bicycle thefts that Toronto Police have offset to this intersection, 2016–2025
38 thefts from vehicles and one bike theft were reported around this corner in 2016–2025 — 6.5× the median for a Toronto intersection with any reported theft. The pace has slowed: 8 in 2023–2025, about 2.7 a year, against 4.4 a year before that. 79% of the vehicle thefts were from the street or other outdoor spots.
By year

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Theft from a vehicle | 38 | 8 | 0 | street/outdoor (30), commercial premises (7) |

Source: Toronto Police Service, Theft From Motor Vehicle and Bicycle Thefts open data, records through Nov 4, 2025. Police offset every occurrence to the nearest intersection before publishing, so these are thefts on the streets and premises around this node, not necessarily at the corner itself. Other offences are published by neighbourhood only — see Etobicoke City Centre.
